Leave your winter coat at home
Unless you're visiting in the wintertime, you won't need any large coats or warm-gear. Even in the winter, you'll be fine with layering up, as it gets warm in the sunlight.

Stay Hydrated!
Bring bottles of water wherever you go, especially between May-August. Dehydration will sneak up on you. Carry a small ice chest in your vehicle full of water if you're able to.
